Introduction
Hardee’s is not your ordinary fast-food restaurant because it offers anything from bacon-stacked Angus burgers to quesadillas to curly fries. With such an extensive menu, we chose to reveal a few of the best and worst menu choices you may order at the group. With the help of Patricia Bannan, MS, RDN, and LA-based nutritionist and quick-cooking professional, we close some of the best and worst Hardee’s cuisine options.
Let’s take a look at some of the superb and worst food items in Hardee’s.
WORST: 2/3 LB. MONSTER THICK BURGER
1,300 calories, 90 g fat (33 g saturated fat, 4 g trans-fat), 3,140 mg sodium, 53 g carbs (2 g fiber, 13 g sugar), 76 g protein
According to the Cleveland Clinic, if you tolerate a 2,000-calorie-per-day diet, you shouldn’t waste more than 22 grams of saturated fat per day, or about 10 percent of calories. But, for those who have high LDL cholesterol stage (the harmful kind), the daily absorption drops to 7 percent or about 16 grams of saturated fat.
WORST: FRISCO THICK BURGER
840 calories, 55 g fat (19 g saturated fat, 2 g trans-fat), 2,140 mg sodium, 46 g carbs (3 g fiber, 7 g sugar), 43 g protein
While not as caloric as the Thick monster burger, this burger is still broad with animal protein. A beef patty is mutilated with bacon, melted Swiss cheese, mayonnaise, and tomato and mashed between roast sourdoughs. Even though it consists of half of the meat of its monster relative, it still will clean out all your days’ credit of sodium and your entire quota of saturated fat if 16 grams is your largest.
BEST: 1/4 LB. CHEESEBURGER
440 calories, 23 g fat (9 g saturated fat, 1 g trans-fat), 1,320 mg sodium, 37 g carbs (2 g fiber, 12 g sugar), 23 g protein
It is a healthier way to go, with only 1/4 pound of meat as opposing to 2/3 lb. or even 1/3 lb. The sodium composition is still high in this menu item, as is the sugar substance. The primary origin of sugar in this meal is the ketchup. One tablespoon of Heinz ketchup, for example, contains 4 grams of sugar.
BEST: DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER
380 calories, 19 g fat (5 g saturated fat, 1 g trans-fat), 810 mg sodium, 33 g carbs (1 g fiber, 5 g sugar), 18 g protein
Even exceptional than the quarter-pounder is Hardee’s double cheeseburger, not to be distracted with the classic double cheeseburger, which clocks in at 610 calories.
“This option has less than half the saturated fat of the Monster Thick burger,†which causes this burger a much more logical choice. Even more exciting is the drop in sodium—with 500 milligrams less than the quarter pounder.
BEST: TRIM IT. CHARBROILED BBQ CHICKEN
190 calories, 30 g fat (1 g saturated fat, N/A g trans-fat), 910 mg sodium, 24 g carbs (1 g fiber, 11 g sugar), 18 g protein
Imagine this sandwich, excluding the bun and somewhat cloaked in lettuce. Erasing the bread cuts out 22 grams of carbs and 8 grams of sugar.
“This sandwich is a lower-calorie choice that is also super low in saturated fat, and grant 18 grams of protein,†says Bannan.
